yea but steve isnt the greatest person to deal with. he gives people the run-around. i would stick with chris williams. hes the most underated rider there is out there and he loves to teach people how to wakeboard. its not jus about the money for him. he actually will go out and ride and not jus sit and the boat and pretend to know how to ride.

If you don't want to pay, try to ride with people in the area who are better than you. You'll have the people to push you and the advice is free!

Thanks for the compliment Blabel, I have noticed quite an improvement in your riding since being under my wing.
